Hello, first post. Bit about myself... Researching family after relatives have passed so bit harder. Have got some good leads on some branches but dead ends on others. My research is focusing around Middlesex (London) and Ely Cambridgshire.
I have a few questions...
1) Is there any good sites for searching census addresses? (I have bought some credits on findmypast but find it useless as you cant put a house number in and to view one page is 3 credits, so can add up quickly!)
2) I have read so many how to's but all seem to give different ways and methods of research. But is there a "checklist" of things to search on new member first? As in when you discover someone you should search census, then marriages etc etc. I find my research goes off at tangants then I lose where I started!! ha
3) Any advice for beginners that you experienced members would suggest reading? Maybe a sticky on the site somewhere?
Lastly, thank you for all the advice I am sure I will recieve! :-)
